Feeding Laboratory Mice: Comparing a Standard Versus a Purified Diet – Marked Effects on Digestive Physiology

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diet composition and processing have a major impact on its utilisation by the animal, as is known from farm and pet animal species. This includes effects on energy and nutrient digestibility, the intermediary metabolism, and the intestinal microbiome, with all the resulting impacts. For laboratory animals, data is scarce on influencing factors

Effects of Broiler Breeder Age on Egg Quality, Incubation Performance, and Early Progeny Physiological and Muscle Fiber Development

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of breeder hen age on the incubation performance, embryonic development, and progeny quality of Cobb500 broiler breeders at 39, 51, and 69 weeks of age. A total of 870 eggs were collected, of which 810 were incubated; these were assigned to a completely randomized design with three treatments and nine ...

Detection and assay of polymorphism in reproductive gene loci in a commercial broiler breeder population for use in association studies [PDF]

, 1999
A candidate gene approach has been adopted to determine if variance in reproductive traits in commercial broiler breeder stock can be associated with alleles of genes involved in reproduction. Alleles with favourable associations may be useful for marker

Evaluation of Torula Yeast (Candida utilis) Single Cell Proteins as a Partial Replacement for Soybean Meal in Broiler Diets: Effects on Productive Performance, Meat Quality Traits, and Plasma Metabolome

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent years the use of yeast in feedstuffs has gained momentum due to novel developments in single‐cell proteins (SCPs). SCPs are considered a sustainable protein source, as their production enable to convert low‐value substrates (including industrial/agricultural wastes) into feed, with a related reduced environmental impact. This study

Iron requirements of broiler breeder hens

Poultry Science, 2017
A study was conducted to investigate Fe requirements of broiler breeders. One-hundred-fifty-six Cobb 500 broiler breeder hens were individually placed in electrostatically painted cages at 22 weeks. The study was composed of an adaptation phase, in which hens were fed corn-soy-wheat bran diets until 35 wks.

The effect of hydroxy‐selenomethionine on the productive and reproductive performance of old broiler breeders

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Background Selenium (Se) is a rare essential element that plays a vital role in the health and performance of animals. By interfering in the production of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase, thioredoxin reductase and methionine sulfoxide,

Sexual Maturity in Broiler Breeder Males

Poultry Science, 1978
Sexual maturity and fertility of two lines of broiler breeder males, one commercial and one experimental, were evaluated individually in order to determine the earliest age at which they could be expected to produce viable spermatozoa capable of producing acceptable fertility.
